title: 2-(Benz-yloxy)iso-quinoline-1,3(2H,4H)-dione.
abstract: The title compound, C16H13NO3, exists in the keto form and the iso-quinoline system is essentially planar (mean deviation = 0.0424 Å). The dihedral angle between the aromatic rings is 4.2 (2)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked via weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds and C-H⋯π inter-actions, forming a three-dimensional structure.
